I keep reading about this "copper tubing" needing to be replaced because of refrigerant leaks. It has occurred to me that copper should not break down and develop leaks. Then, I conclude that the "leaks" must be somewhere else, say, the coil in the upper part of the unit in the garage. A thin coil could develop leaks before thick copper tubing - sealed off within a pvc pipe - buried under your concrete slab. Please help me understand how copper tubing could "develop a leak".
